White Supremacists Spoil Halloween Weekend

October 28, 2017


Nazis, KKK, and White Supremacists steal Halloween Happiness

The city made a very public show of force, enlisting the aid of the sheriff’s office, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation officers, Metro Nashville Police Department officers, state troopers and even agents from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency. Almost all were outfitted in bulletproof vests and many carried high-powered assault rifles. The city also stationed sharpshooters on the roofs of businesses on each side of the square.



White supremacists gathered at the city courthouse next to plaques honoring Nathan Bedford Forrest and memorials to fallen confederate soldiers, in Shelbyville on Saturday morning. A thousand counter-protesters confronted 150 white supremacists. Three white supremacists waited in Murfreesboro, but the rally failed in the afternoon.


In Shelbyville, around 150 white supremacists gathered and marched, chanting “blood and soil” and “white lives matter” according to observers. A counter demonstration, according to one witness, was “at least triple” the size of the racists, and counter protesters played "La Bamba" and drowned out the message from League of the South leader Michael Hill

A spokesperson for the League of the South, Hunter Wallace, tweeted out “Had some intel Murfreesboro was a lawsuit trap. Not worth the risk,” and then confirmed that the white supremacists were headed to Henry Horton State Park. Wallace also tried to claim that Murfreesboro was just a “backup plan” and claimed success in spreading the group’s message.

Fencing was installed around the center of the square to keep the demonstrators and counter-protesters separated. Barriers were also set up to keep traffic away from the area.

Businesses in and around the town square were closed for the day, and many businesses boarded windows and entrances with messages of love and inclusion.

Halloween is such an important holiday too. All about honoring the dead, not about kids getting free candy, men having the freedom to wear lipstick, women letting out their inner slut or yet another reason to get drunk and wake up in some strangers bed.

Shame on those so called supremacists. Every other day of the year they are on their best behavior. Now their reps are totally ruined with this stunt.

First, how do you know they are White Supremacists? Even assuming they are, it is just a small group peacefully demonstrating, as they have a Constitutional right to do. It seems to me the real spoilsports are those in the much larger crowd who are threatening violence against the demonstrators.

FWIW, I have no use for the smaller group, but I do have a great deal of affection for the First Amendment.

Hey, sometimes men like to get drunk and wake up in some stranger's bed too.

Sorry. I forgot to give equal rights to men. Just like giving out candy right?

Happy Halloween

Why doesn't the media label these pieces of trash "terrorists"? They are terrorists in my book.

Let one of these homegrown fellows murder 50 people and they won't even utter the T word, but they are so quick to label anyone who is Muslim a terrorist.

Sick of the media double standard.

The biggest terrorists are HOMEGROWN.
